Our own Doug Powers published a VIP post on Monday morning about how the media "fact-checks" on FEMA money and illegal immigrants were aging worse by the minute. Karine Jean-Pierre said back in October that it was "categorically false" that FEMA money was going toward illegal aliens. That same day, MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire accused Donald Trump and Elon Musk of “spreading lies” about FEMA spending money on illegals. Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler gave Trump four Pinocchios.
But then Elon Musk on Monday said that DOGE had found that FEMA had spent $59 million over the past week alone to house illegal immigrants in New York City hotels. Meanwhile, FEMA director Deanne Criswell said disinformation was being "weaponized" by citizens against the agency during Hurricane Helene. This was after we learned that a FEMA official had instructed workers to avoid houses hit by Hurricane Milton that had Trump campaign signs on their property.
Keep in mind these words — disinformation, politicization, and weaponization as you watch this supercut on FEMA from Grabien Media's Tom Elliott.
SUPERCUT!

Corporate media: FEMA would never politicize emergency response pic.twitter.com/uGDi8coEPS
This is the mainstream media we're supposed to look to to correct all of the disinformation we hear on social media.
This needs to be shared everywhere

Each time Abby Phillip is dead wrong for some reason makes her more confident.

That elitist smug confidence that these puppets have while regurgitating party lines…

It never gets old
This is so infuriating. I’m a Floridian and heads need to roll. I can only imagine what horrors those Carolinians had to deal with.

Excellent clip! Is it just one person, or a committee, that issues the propaganda to MSM ?

Who are you going to believe, a talking head on the TV or the people actually on scene?

Will these MSM shills continue to lie after their funds are cut off from secretive sources tied to the democrats?

“Politicized”

I wish we could make them dedicate an hour just to reading retractions and apologies.

Wouldn't that be something? The best part about being in corporate media is never having to admit you were wrong.
We're gonna have to find some new conspiracy theories. All the old ones are coming true.

We can't imagine how much this enrages those still living in tents in North Carolina.
